It is 3. That's the correct answer
The sum of
7.8 and 7.02 would be
14.82
because
7.8
+7.02
------------
14.82
hope this helps :)
Answer is C).
One way to find the answer is to multiply the $54 by .30 (which is 30%converted to a decimal). Doing this will give you what 30% of $54 is.
This gives you 16.2
Since the question is asking what 30% off the price is, subtract the 16.2 from the $54.
A(b) = 12(b + 9) / 2
12(b + 9) = 2 A(b)
b + 9 = 2 A(b) / 12 = A(b) / 6
b = A(b)
----- - 9
6
B(a) = a
-- - 9
6
It's C
The three numbers are 12, 18 and 24
Arithmetic progression
Let the 3 number in arithmetic progression be:
a-d, d, a+d ...
If their sum is 3, then;
a-d+d+a+d = 3
2a + d = 3 ........... 1
If the sum of their squares is 11, then;
(a-d)² + d² + (a+d)² = 11
a²-2ad+d²+d²+a²+2ad+d² 11
2a²+3d² = 11 ....... 2
Solving the equations simultaneously, d = 6 and a = 12
First-term = 12
second term = 18
Thirs term = 24
Hence the three numbers are 12, 18 and 24
Hope this helps you!!!!!! :D
